Just had a doc use the word "averbal", meaning not speaking.  I could  not verify this word anywhere.  Found reference in archives here and someone said to Google "averbal definition", which I did.  Could not find any reference to this word.  Should I leave it as dictated, or change it to "nonverbal"?  TIA!
